Christie Re-Elected to Second Term as Governor of New Jersey

Expected to win more than 50 percent of the vote

ASBURY PARK, N.J. (AP)—Gov. Chris Christie was re-elected with ease Tuesday, demonstrating the kind of broad, bipartisan appeal that will serve as his opening argument should he seek the Republican presidential nomination in 2016.

The Associated Press called the race based on interviews with voters as they left polling places. The interviews were conducted for the AP and television networks ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN and Fox News by Edison Research.
